How can i find my ancestors online?
Unfortunately, it is very rare to simply find one entire line of your tree on any web site. Most often you have to work backwards on your own for a number of generations before you can link them to someone else’s line. You will find some lines better to trace than others. Start from the present and work backwards. Where was the last known ancestor born? If in Canada or the USA, get their birth certificate. This will have her/his parents’ place of birth. Keep going until you get to an overseas location. Then it is best to buy genealogy books on that country to help facilitate your search. The Mormon Church keeps many records of archival birth, marriage & death entries from all over the world. You do not have to be a member to use their facilities. (familysearch.org) Also, it is good to join a genealogy group online or in your area.
